Attendance Policies
We, at New Hope Medical Training, realize how important it is for students to have regular
attendance to obtain pertinent knowledge from a class to enhance their career goals. It is also vital
that all students who graduate from their individual program are equipped and prepared for the medical
field of their choice. It is essential that students be in attendance of all classroom hours, including labs
and clinical. Therefore, we have developed the following policy regarding attendance, absences,
leaves, tardiness, class cuts, and other interruptions, as well as make-up work:
Absences
Students are expected to call or email only the administrative office if they will be absent.
Students are responsible for course content when absent and for coming prepared to the
class following the absence. It is the student’s responsibly to obtain make-up assignments
from the instructor.
The student must come to assigned make up days announced in class
Poor attendance will result in disciplinary actions (see policy below).
Make Up Work
Students may be given make up tests that are different and slightly more difficult from
the original tests given to students. Make up assignments will be done on assigned make
up days. Make up days will be announced on orientation and / or first day of class. All
students who are absent must come to assigned make up days to successfully complete
the course.
Tardiness
All students are expected to be on time for each class. There will be a 10-minute grace
period after class officially begins. After 10 minutes, the student is considered to be
tardy. If a student has excessive tardiness, he or she may be subjected to disciplinary
actions leading to dismissal from class.
Class Cuts
If student leaves class early or cuts class without instructor approval, the student will be
subject to the same disciplinary action as in the attendance policy.
Unsatisfactory Attendance Policy:
Actions for students, whose absences, tardiness, or leaving early from class interfere with their
ability to meet course objectives, the student may occur the following:
Placed on academic probation
8
Dropped from the course
Providing documentation does not remove the absence from records
If the student decides not to return to class, the student will be dropped from the class at
midterm unless the student withdraws from the course in writing per school policy.
Governing Body Regulated Attendance
Some future programs may have outside regulatory bodies that require a minimum of course
attendance and hours.
Each instructor will include attendance requirements and criteria for tardiness on the course
syllabus.
Special Circumstances/Leave of absence
Special consideration may be given but not guaranteed which may include a leave of absence, in
the case of a student prolonged illness, accident, death in the family, or other circumstances that
make it impractical to complete the program. This has to be approved by the Director and will
require documented proof (for example a doctor’s note, or obituary copy.)
